The second track off of Street Choir's debut EP "Now" featuring Portland rapper Mic Mar.
lyrics
Verse 1:
I need you to stop and be real now
Tell me why you always shut me out
Are you just self concious or too proud?
I'm not trying to break you down
So I wonder what your afraid of?
I thought I'd become someone you trust
I'm not here to hurt you or to judge
I don't think I'm asking too much
Chorus:
Don't shut me out, I haven't said enough
Don't shut me out, we have more to discuss
Don't shut me out, that's not asking for much
Don't shut me out, don't shut me out
Don't shut me out, I haven't said enough
Don't shut me out, we have more to discuss
Don't shut me out, that's not asking for much
Don't shut me out, don't shut me out
Verse 2:
Yo starting to think that you were the issue
Momma think I'd be a fool to miss you wait
Take it back to when we was chatting on the internet
I like her body but she also got the intellect
Conversations well related, motivated to make this work
Overall you know I put you first
Know that I treat you good but still things ain't how they should be
Build an "Empire," she "Cookie"
I'm feeling like these secrets are affecting what could be real love
Instead of giving up all worked up cause you hate to face the truth
I'm about to lose my mind if you don't push the b.s. aside for real
I got some homies that'll ride for me, can't find a woman that is never gonna lie to me
So it's now or never, but you're never getting better, either way I'm good as far as eyes can see
So don't
Chorus:
Don't shut me out, I haven't said enough
Don't shut me out, we have more to discuss
Don't shut me out, that's not asking for much
Don't shut me out, don't shut me out
Don't shut me out, I haven't said enough
Don't shut me out, we have more to discuss
Don't shut me out, that's not asking for much
Don't shut me out, don't shut me out
Bridge:
I still don't I still don't I still dont know you
I still don't I still don't I still dont know you
I still don't I still don't I still dont know you
I still don't I still don't I still dont know you
I still don't I still don't I still dont know you
I still don't I still don't I still dont know you
I still don't I still don't I still dont know you
I still don't I still don't I still dont know you
Chorus:
Don't shut me out, I haven't said enough
Don't shut me out, we have more to discuss
Don't shut me out, that's not asking for much
Don't shut me out, don't shut me out
Don't shut me out, I haven't said enough
Don't shut me out, we have more to discuss
Don't shut me out, that's not asking for much
Don't shut me out, don't shut me out
Bridge/Outro:
I still don't I still don't I still dont know you
I still don't I still don't I still dont know you
I still don't I still don't I still dont know you
I still don't I still don't I still dont know you...
